That's the fun of apocalypse fiction, particularly the ubiquitous zombie sort: Everyone loves to think about what they would do, whom they would save, how they would allocate food among some ragtag band of accidental companions.
Some social carnivores (e.g. wolves [26], [27]) allocate food according to a dominance hierarchy, with young forced on occasion to give food to more dominant older animals.
Clutch size adjusters allocate food evenly amongst nestlings, and even preferentially feed young that are in poorer condition, so that all members of the clutch fledge.
It is thus possible that immediate assessment of chick condition through characteristics of single call elements is important mainly in the context of allocating food resources between siblings in multi-chick broods.
Further, in a clutch size of one, there is no need to allocate food between siblings of a single brood in relation to offspring sex or quality (Kölliker et al. 1998; Draganoiu et al. 2006).
The generic FoodSwitch algorithm allocates foods with a score based on their overall nutritional profile, and the additional criterion for SaltSwitch ensures that healthier alternatives are always lower in salt than the product scanned.
Farms are based on wood, and you may even need to allocate food-gathering villagers to chopping wood.
One out of every two dollars spent on food in the United States goes into the registers at restaurants, according to Hudson Riehle, senior vice president of research at the National Restaurant Association in Washington, D.C. "As far back as 1955, just 25% of the food dollar was allocated toward food away from home.
However, large households with a greater proportion of income allocated for food use reduced vegetable consumption intensity.
In rural dwellers, consumption intensity was negatively influenced by the proportion of income allocated for food use.
